Europe, despite its division into multiple nations even with a European Union, now enjoys a uniformly high level of cancer detection by virtue of the Europe Against Cancer Program, begun in 1986. The program's aim was reducing cancer mortality by 15% by the year 2000. Its operating arm, the European Breast Cancer Network, compared and reported on the pilot projects in the member states. Some early results were poor, with high recall rates (up to 28%); the main cause was poor image quality. By 1992, the Network had published the first European Guidelines for Quality Assurance in Mammography Screening. Since then, oversight provided by the Network has produced not only excellence in results across the continent but also data on the interpretation of mammograms that could be of value to mammography programs everywhere.
欧洲尽管被划分为多个国家，即使有欧盟存在，但借助1986年启动的“欧洲抗癌计划”，现在癌症检测水平普遍较高。该计划的目标是到2000年将癌症死亡率降低15%。其运营机构欧洲乳腺癌网络对成员国的试点项目进行比较并发布报告。一些早期结果不佳，召回率很高（高达28%）；主要原因是图像质量差。到1992年，该网络发布了第一份欧洲乳腺钼靶筛查质量保证指南。从那时起，该网络提供的监督不仅在整个欧洲大陆产生了出色的结果，还产生了有关乳腺钼靶解读的数据，这些数据可能对各地的乳腺钼靶项目有价值。
